Steel prices on the exchange
The price of rebar futures on the Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) for May 2025 delivery fell sharply by 26 yuan to 3,658 yuan/ton.
With Asian spot iron ore prices falling below $60/tonne, steelmaking raw material prices appear to be heading towards a level more in line with supply and demand fundamentals.
However, as always, the risk when a rally reverses as quickly as the current fall in iron ore is that prices will overshoot the mark.
Spot prices in Asia fell to $59.65 a tonne on Wednesday, a 3-1/2-month low and down 25% from a recent peak of $79.65 in late August.
Iron ore is now well below the $78.87 level reached at the end of 2016 and it is proving to be a volatile year, with two strong price rallies followed by sharp reversals.
Both the spike to a 2017 high of $94.86 a tonne in late February and the August peak were driven by optimism about surging steel output in China, which buys about two-thirds of global seaborne iron ore.
The latest drop in iron ore prices comes as some optimism about Chinese steel production and demand fades, especially amid factory closures as part of efforts to improve air quality ahead of a major conference of the ruling Communist Party that begins on October 18.
While prices have fluctuated, China’s import demand has remained remarkably stable. Imports in the first eight months of the year were 714 million tonnes, up 6.7% year-on-year, according to customs data.
Seaborne iron ore imports were 87.2 million tonnes in September, down slightly from 88.6 million tonnes in August, the data showed.
There is a risk that iron ore imports could be slightly lower in the final quarter of this year, due to expected steel mill closures and ample inventories at Chinese ports, which rose to 133.8 million tonnes in the week to October 6.
